2019 Maruti Suzuki WagonR launched at Rs 4.19 lakh

The next-gen Maruti Suzuki WagonR has been launched in India between Rs 4.19 – 5.69 lakh (ex-showroom). As always, it will be sold through the company’s Arena sales network.

Based on Suzuki’s Heartect platform, the new WagonR wears a brand new Ignis-esque design up front. On the other hand, its rear – particularly the tail lamps – look inspired by the latest Ertiga.

The new model gains better equipment to take on the Santro. The top-end ZXi trim comes with a 7.0-inch infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay support. Standard safety kit on all variants includes ABS, EBD, rear parking sensors and driver side airbag.

For the first time ever, the WagonR gets a bigger 1.2-litre engine which makes 82 bhp/ 113 Nm in addition to the 1.0-litre from the previous model which produces 67 bhp/ 90 Nm. Another first is the option of a 5-speed AMT transmission that’s available with both engines.
